Zion Jeep Tours

History

Zion Jeep Tours was founded in 2003 to provide expert guided tours to the over 3 million visitors of Zion National park and its environs. The park, located in South Western USA near Utah, is a vast expanse of natural geographic features such as the Zion Canyon and the Navajo sandstone. This vastness allows for unique life zones that support diverse flora and fauna.
The average visitor to Zion National Park will never venture beyond the well-worn paths. Therefore, they never experience the park’s true but hidden treasures. To most, the pictures they see of Zion never become reality. For this, an experienced hand such as Zion Jeep Tours is needed.

Different visitors have different motivations and expectations while visiting the park. To meet these varying needs, Zion Jeep Tours has designed different Safari packages. All these Safaris provide a fun and intimate experience of the park and its surroundings. These include:

“Mesa Vista” Safari

This is the most scenic and popular of our safari packages and focuses on the western side of Zion National Park. It begins at Springdale climbing through the bark country of the Kolob terrace.

At the Mesa’s edge is a spectacular viewing point that allows us to view 2500-foot cliffs as they reflect fiery pinks, purples and orange at sunset. Numerous sightings of Native American wall paintings and wildlife exist along the way occasioning several stops and photo opportunities.
